BUILDING ON THE ROCK  Matthew 7:21–28 "Therefore whoever hears these sayings of Mine, and does them, I will liken him to a wise man who built his house on the rock” (V. 24) NKJV   🎙 Victory Daily Devotional BUILDING ON THE ROCK Support Us Matthew 7:21–28 Remi Agbabiaka Outreach Ministry (RAOM)  |  victorydaily.blogspot.com God is the author of our lives. He knows the best way to direct us to fulfil destiny in life. In His word are directions for our victory and success. Jesus said, when we hear his word and do them (that is, obeying them), then we can be referred to as wise (Deuteronomy 4:6). This is because the way of God is the sure way to our victory and success. His ways are different from our ways (Isaiah 55:8-9). There are many things that we cannot see and God has put in place for our aid. So, we will be wise to obey He who knows more...

WHAT IS GROWTH

WHAT IS GROWTH   

Luke 2:36-40
Devotional:-“And the Child grew and became strong in spirit, filled with wisdom; and the grace of God was upon Him” (v.40) NKJV


    The reason why people live in frustration is because of lack of growth. Life become unbearable when man can no longer cope with his challenges. The reason man cannot cope with the challenges of his life is because, he is weak in that aspect of life (Proverbs 24:10). Instead of complaining, God expect us to build up and overcome the challenges of our lives. So, the way to progress in life is growth. 

    Growth is the act of increasing, becoming stronger and better in life. In the scripture we read today, we saw Jesus growing up as a child, yet increasing in different aspect of His life. This is a key factor to your success on earth. Jesus was growing stronger in the spirit because, that is what He was made of and that is what we are also made of (John 4: 24, Genesis 1:26-27). He was filled with wisdom and was growing in understanding (Proverbs 4:7). He also acquires the grace of God because growth qualifies for grace (Proverbs 4:9).

    These are blessings that comes with growth. Let us refuse to be victim of life but be willing to grow up in Christ Jesus, so that we can be qualified for our heritage in God (Galatians 4: 1). A none growing person will miss out in the blessings of life. But when we grow up, we do not only qualify but become strong enough to handle the good things of life. Peace. 

Prayer: Lord, give me a heart for growth. 

"NO GROWTH, NO HERITAGE"

Jesus earned this office by becoming the sacrificial Lamb of God for the salvation and redemption of man (Phil. 2:7-11). Therefore, every citizen of the kingdom of God must be followers and disciples of Jesus.

MASTER’S MINAS

MASTER’S MINAS Luke 19:11-27 Devotional:- “So he called ten of his servants, delivered to them ten minas, and said to them, 'Do business till I come” (V. 13) NKJV      The word of God instructs us to do business. The Bible did not advise us to do business but it commanded us. That is why it would be wrong for you and me to be without a business. That makes idleness a crime against self (1 Thessalonians 4:11). Business is whatever you are doing to earn income. God will not accommodate idleness with anyone because He invested heavily in us.

DOMINION

  DOMINION   Psalms 8:1-9 Devotional:- “You have made him to have dominion over the works of Your hands; You have put all things under his feet” (V. 6) NKJV      At creation, man was given dominion over all that God created. This office was at that time a terrifying one for other creatures and even the devil. (Psalms 8.6; Psalms 110:1-3). It was this office that the devil was after that he had to deceive man and steal. You will observe that man was the last creature of God (Genesis 1:26). Yet he was made to have dominion over all that existed before him. The devil saw this as partiality on the side of God. He did not know that though man was the last creation yet the finest. The man was finally created to be in charge of all creation.
